@hellohalima Marina and Kiki are in a close competition for which jersey I end up buying when I do eventually get one, this will be good for that decision
A big issue we saw in the playoffs was a lack of creation without Scottie on the floor. If Stirtz plays like this, that alleviates a lot of pressure for the whole team. This would hopefully fix some of offensive droughts the team had all season, especially in the halfcourt
The most popular pick for the Raptors in mock drafts so far is Iowa sniper Bennett Stirtz.
๐ข 72% FG at the rim this past season
๐ข 59% FG on twos
๐ข 37% from 3 over two seasons
๐ข 20 ppg scorer with high feel
@hellohalima I know the Clippers had full leverage not needing to trade him, but I refuse to believe there was another team out there offering the Clippers a better package than a top 10 protect 26 first or plus the rest or 3 1sts. I have a feeling they were betting against themselves
@hellohalima Exactly that! It's not like it was this years pick and if it didn't convey they only owed them the 29 first, if if they kept it this year they still get next year's. So why not just go the extra step and offer 3 picks or more and guarantee it if you we're gonna tank anyways
@CaptainNuge1 Moving up or getting a second pick in this draft might actually be one of my biggest wants this off-season. From both a salary and a where the team is at perspective I think a draft like this can make a big difference in helping to fill needs and solidify this young core
